Web Browser

Netscape remained the Web browser of choice until Microsoft began pre-packaging their own Web browser into the Windows operating system. Internet Explorer was lower to Netscape in many ways, particularly criticized for ongoing security issues, numerous bugs, and a lack of conformity to Web standard protocols. While this turned off many in the online community, the flood of new computer users knew too little to be aware or concerned. By 1998, Internet Explorer dominated as the most everywhere Web browser, due in large part to Microsoft’s ability to pre-load it into new computer systems.
The browser application retrieves or fetches code, usually written in Hyper Text Markup Language or another language, from a web server, interprets this code, and displays it as a web page for you to view. In the majority of cases, user interaction is needed to tell the browser what web site or specific web page he or she would like to view. One way this is done is using the browser's address bar.

Information about the wiki


A wiki is a source of information on the internet that everyone can see and anyone can change by posting a wiki the only thing bad with a wiki is that anyone can post anything so it is not always reliable but most of the time it is reliable. I think personally the best wiki site is wikipidea but like I said before you can’t always trust wiki sites.

WEB PAGE EDITORS
A web page editor is a program that allows you to create web pages. If you want to create a page using HTML then you should use a text editor of some sort. They come with the options such as templates, spelling checkers, color coding and much more.
If you want to make a web page quickly, or not using HTML you will probably use something more complex. Editors like FrontPage and Composer are simple and easy to use but don’t have more complex things like JavaScript and DHMTL without using there text editor option.
